We had a lovely visit with my mother-in-law the past few days. Lots of good talks and good food. (My jeans are currently a bit snug because of it but, I have to admit... it was worth it - I love food!)
Yesterday morning we went down to the Kennedy Center for brunch.
There is a restaurant on the top of the building with amazing views of DC. On Sundays they offer a great brunch... a huge buffet of food laid out in the kitchen (they even have a separate room laid out with just sweets - heaven).
Oh - and they offer you a complimentary mimosa when you arrive... one can't ask for much more on a Sunday morning!.
After brunch we walked along the terrace.
Amazing views on all four sides.
The Potomac and Georgetown...
The Jefferson and Lincoln memorials...
And... the Washington Monument (never far from view in DC!)
And of course, since I am a bit nutty about fresh flowers, I had to have some in the house for the visit. I couldn't resist these yellow tulips.
Don't they just have a simple, classic beauty? These were grown in Virginia.
The leaves are already fading a bit, but the blooms are still vibrant and sunny.
Love. ♥
